About Me
I have the curiosity of a journalist, the enthusiasm of a publicist and the strategic mind of a marketing consultant.
Born and raised in the Midwest, I earned my cub reporter cap at the South Bend Tribune in Indiana. I was a writer and editor for a variety of other publications, and worked in corporate public relations before moving to Las Vegas in 1999, where I focused more on working in PR. My firm, ImageWords Communications, has worked with clients across all industries, including retail, home improvement, design, construction, commercial real estate, health care, fitness and more. I’ve been honored with several awards, and I love working with clients to enter them into different awards competitions.
Because I’m always evolving, so is my business. In recent years, I’ve been focusing on slowing down so I can work one-on-one with clients in the most meaningful way, designing one-of-a-kind marketing strategies and making introductions that help them meet their business goals. When I connect clients with media, or with other businesses, non-profits or community causes, I feel like a success—both personally and professionally.
My work has never been just a job. It’s about making magic happen.
As a communications consultant and master connector, my greatest joy in life is helping individuals and brands shine brighter by amplifying their stories and connecting them to opportunities, and to each other.
If you’re looking for the traditional PR agency, with a one-size-fits-all-media plan, you’ll want to keep searching. But if you want a one-of-a-kind marketing maven—full of creativity and quirks—who can introduce you to the right people at the right time, let’s talk.
Through my three decades of experience, I’ve watched clients become friends and friends become clients. I’ve learned that results and relationships fuel me, and challenges quench me. I’ve become a go-to resource for journalists seeking experts. And I live for being the biggest cheerleader and strongest advocate for my clients, past and present.
